Like to save old crap (Errr, I mean vital data?)

Well as the end of the year approaches, and in the USofA everyone looks for taxible donations, or just the holiday spirit of giving, here is a humble suggestion:

archive.org

Yep, the guys who run the wayback machine, and all kinds of other nifty stuff (like the usenet archive) are running a fundraiser to get four petabytes of storage. So far they are one down, three to go.

About neozeed

What is there to tell? I've loved UNIX like things since I was first exposed to QNX in highschool (we had the Unisys ICONS!), and spent the better time of my teenage years trying to get my own UNIX... I should have bought Coherent in retrospect.. Anyways latched onto Linux in 1992, and then got some old BSD admin books and have been hooked on the VAX BSD & other big/ancient things since...!

I should see if I can do a ‘sanatized’ dump of wordpress, without logs, ip addresses & passwords.. Not that I plan on dying anytime soon, but I should make this somewhat available incase of disaster or something.

In a way I guess blogspot was that, but when it went down hard for two weeks… well it was all to easy for them to have given up on us little people who generate $3.25 google adsense revenue over three years…

Although I am happy to say that I’ve cut operational expenses down to $74 USD a year, which is $42 for the primary VPS, $21 for the secondary VPS, and $10 for the domain name.. So at least this is somewhat affordable if anything.
